DeepSeek is a Chinese artificial intelligence company based in Hangzhou, founded in 2023 by Liang Wenfeng. The company develops advanced open-weight large language models including DeepSeek-R1 and DeepSeek-V2, focusing on efficiency, reasoning capabilities, multilingual understanding, and cost-effective inference.
